Empowered by the collective support of their staff, volunteers, donors, and participants, GallopNYC provides therapeutic experiences with horses to facilitate personal development for New Yorkers with disabilities and others who benefit from their life-changing programs. GallopNYC leverages the power of horses to support people in learning new life skills and to thrive within their communities and families.

Their vision is to make the life-changing benefits of therapeutic experiences with horses available to all New Yorkers with disabilities and other needs.

Running the largest and most multi-faceted therapeutic riding program in New York City, GallopNYC provides therapeutic riding to urban children who otherwise would not have the chance to interact with horses. Nearly 12% of city residents live with disabilities that present developmental, physical, social, and/or emotional challenges. 

GallopNYC aims to serve a socioeconomically and racially diverse group of riders. GallopNYC makes the benefits of therapeutic riding available by subsidizing, on average, a third of the cost of each lesson for all riders, and we offer need-based fee waivers so riders can participate, regardless of financial means.
